MA/MS in Civil Engineering

This civil engineering master's is a research-focused degree that advances the foundation of knowledge in the field while building design and analysis skills. Students can study full time or part time. Each student pursues an area of interest through a graduate thesis, working on a current problem and growing into a technical expert. The path also suits those who plan to pursue a doctorate in engineering later and want to practice research analytically. Recommended coursework includes applied mathematics or engineering statistics, a graduate thesis and electives from the catalog. Admission is rolling, with starts in the fall and spring semesters, and the Manager of Graduate Programs handles questions. The program belongs to CETA at the University of Hartford in Connecticut, where students learn through project work, collaborate with faculty on research and gain industry exposure. Prospective applicants can request information, tour the campus and consult the course catalog.
